    On 28 East for anyone with a receiver which can handle the parameters. Strong signal and better HD than the RTE terrestrial signal.

    So they dropped the 4:2:2 enc. Great hope they keep it for the duration.


    On the subject of feeds, I have noticed a serious inability to receive some of the satweb links for 23.5E despite having 15db's on the normal channels. Something is off or I need to switch the arm to my TD110. Either that or the E2 box software is corrupt.

    Feed is up again, channel name UKI120 Spare, very strong. Some feeds on 23 East are just not strong enough for normal dishes. The same happens on 3 West.

    A lot more feeds on 28 East these days, especially Spanish (mostly Catalan), nearly all 4:2:0. As you know 4:2:2 is not an encryption, but it does limit reception to people with the right equipment.

    I suppose every LNB is slightly different, but on my Ariva I could find nothing on the parameters you quoted.
    I did find it on 12541 H 9874
    Usually I can sync on a signal when the parameters are so close, but strangely not in this case.
